3M 7000045096 Quick-change Disc 3 in 50 Grit Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The 3M 7000045096 is a quick-change abrasive disc engineered for fast material removal on metal, weld seams, and surface prep applications. It uses aluminum oxide abrasive grain on a rigid cloth backing rated Y-weight, delivering a coarse 50-grit cut suited to aggressive stock removal. The disc measures 3 inches in diameter and attaches via the Roloc TR Type R quick-change system, allowing tool-free disc swaps without a wrench. It is rated to a maximum of 20,000 RPM. The 7000045096 belongs to the 3M 361F series and carries a brown disc face with a green mounting button.

This disc is used in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and field service environments where rapid surface conditioning or weld blending is required. The coarse 50-grit aluminum oxide abrasive is effective on mild steel, stainless steel, and other ferrous metals. The Roloc TR attachment system is compatible with Type R and TR mandrels commonly used with right-angle die grinders and pneumatic or electric finishing tools. Individual discs are sold per piece with a minimum order quantity of 50 units.
